A library of 36 fashion-model poses

Thirty-six ready-to-paste pose prompts for an AI image model — each a full-body studio or editorial shot driven from a reference photo, with the picture it produces. Part one of a three-library system; camera angles and movements are the other two

A grid of 36 fashion poses, each card showing the picture, the exact prompt that makes it, and a copy button. Every prompt keeps the same shape — What (the subject, read from your reference image), Pose (the one thing that changes), Location (studio or editorial lighting) and Additional (quality tags) — so you can swap the reference and keep the pose, or swap the pose and keep the look. Filter by the three categories: Standard catalogue poses, Editorial poses, and a Test set of livelier shots. The companion libraries add camera angles and camera movements.

How the pose prompts work

Each prompt is built to work from a reference image: it tells the model to photograph the same model as in your reference, in a specific pose, under a fixed studio or editorial lighting set-up, with a line of quality tags. Because the subject, lighting and quality parts are shared across a category, the pose itself is the only variable — so the 36 here are really 36 pose lines dropped into one reliable wrapper.
